The Course

A Historic Course Designed to Delight Every Golfer

Celebrating over 125 years of golf, Sturgeon Point Golf Club is one of Ontario’s most beloved community courses — and one of its most enduring. Since opening in 1899, SPGC has been defined by a simple, deeply held belief: great golf should be accessible to everyone.

Open to the public and home to an enthusiastic membership, our club is genuinely non-profit in spirit — every dollar earned is reinvested into improving the course, the facilities, and the programs that welcome new players to the game.

A Pedigree Worth Playing

The golf course traces its beginning to the late 1890s, as the oldest links course in the Kawartha Lakes. The club property was donated in trust by Sir Joseph Flavelle, one of Canada’s greatest businessmen, with the intent that it could be enjoyed by the public. The trust remains in place today.

The original club house, built in 1906, and expanded in 1934, remains in use today. 

In 1929 the course was significantly updated and redesigned by Clinton E. (Robbie) Robinson, one of Canada’s (and North America’s) greatest golf course architects. Sturgeon Point Golf Club was the first golf course that CE Robinson worked on, while still an undergraduate at Guelph, and prior to his work with Stanley Thompson.

Welcoming to All, Rewarding for the Serious Player

Flat and wonderfully walkable, with short, scenic strolls between greens and tees, Sturgeon Point is the kind of course where first-timers feel at home and seasoned players find plenty to respect. The terrain is varied, the views over Sturgeon Lake are unforgettable, and the challenge is always honest.

For those who want to play 18, we recommend teeing off from the forward tees (blue or yellow) on the first nine, then stepping up to the black tees for the back nine — a fresh perspective and a genuinely different test of your game.
